Please Help with elusive Nightwear

[AaarmadillosWhy]

I'm looking for a cotton nightshirt with

• short sleeves
• buttons only half way down or a V-neck.
• Plain or stylish simple pattern (stars would be OK; paisley print/cartoons or 'funny' slogans definitley not)
• in a large or x-large or very lose cut

No budget - if it's nice I don't care. I would like something stylish.

This is ideal but they only do it in a medium and I hate feeling constricted by nightwear so like it to be baggy:

This is fairly simple you'd think but apparently it's like looking for a holy grail.

Please help me.

It's not short sleeved but is this the sort of thing ?

Would love to, but it took me 3 years to find a white or cream plain cotton or linen short sleeved knee length nightie.
Eventually found a dress (not nightdress) in Sainsbos that ticked the boxes! Bought 4 and hope that's it for the next 10 years.

This, from the White Company ?

This combo is rather fetching !

Something like this?

Either of these?

If you search Amazon under men's clothing for "mr nightgown" there are a couple - not feminine but roomy

I have this and it is so comfortable.

landsend has v neck nightshirts in cotton. Different lengths available.

Not sure about th e headgear {{https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mens-Night-Shirt-Cap-Set-Nightshirt-Nightwear-Sleepwear-Cotton-M-L-XL-2-3-4-5XL/272667635873?epid=864169185&hash=item3f7c41f0a1:m:mcPQfqTrjRFl23MCbX7DxgQ these}}

You could cut the dangly bits off?

at house of frasers available in a 16

also in a 16

Ah! Thanks for all the ideas.

a number of them (incuding the mens one) have long sleeves and I really want short sleeves (again hate that feeling of constriction round your arms!)

maremaremare - the White Company one is the kind of thing I'm after but I don't want textured fabric - just smooth plain cotton.

Lucked - I'd already seen those - the shape of the Cyberjammies one at House of Fraser is exactly right but again I don't like or want a pattern unless it is very simple like a star or plain stripe. Plus I don't want buttons all the way down the front - I'm looking for partial buttons.

absolutehush - LOL - yes that is the kind of thing minus head gear but I really want a stylish looking female one not an obviously male pattern.

borntobequiet I totally hear you. I did the same thing with a perfect Bonsoir direct night shirt many years ago. I also bought a number but the last one is on its last legs!

TheWoolyBacksWife your link was broken for me. What was the product you linked to please?

It was Debenhams - Lounge and Sleep star print nightdress. It's viscose rather than cotton but it is so comfortable.

Wee willie winkle is running through my mind now

Hmmmm...

This sea salt one is slightly more feminine and (yeeeessss) has pockets: https://www.seasaltcornwall.co.uk/clothing/nightwear/bay-view-nighty-nightshirtcornishhwhirlchalk.htm

These are nice but not got the right sleeves: www.pjpan.co.uk/womens-pink-star-print-nightshirt

This cyber Jamie's might work: www.next.co.uk/gl02234s10

Davis Napier soft cosy nightshirt. If you scroll through the nightwear past the frillier stuff.

Sorry it’s David Nieper

Thanks Wooly - I found it. I like the print but I do want cotton not viscose.

AbsoluteHush - I really liked the Pjpans star print one but it has long sleeves and also they say comes up small - and I want a baggy roomy loose one. Wondering now whether I should just accept defeat and take a bunch to have sleeves shortened.

Oddbutnot - thanks - I'd already looked at David Nieper - I find them a bit too old fashioned/older persons style tbh.

Hanro mercerised Cotton is the stuff of dreams! It lasts for years, and I mean years. People at work mock me but I have nighties that are 20 years old. It is an investment, and will far outlast 3 M&S nighties at the same price.

Watching....my nighties have seen better days.
